God Leads Us Along

##

G.A. Young

     C
In shady, green pastures, so rich and so sweet,
     G                        C
God leads His dear children along;
           C
Where the water’s cool flow bathes the weary one’s feet,
     G                        C
God leads His dear children along.

Refrain:
 C                C7      F                C
Some through the waters, some through the flood,
 Em               Am       Dm               G
Some through the fire, but all through the blood;
 C                  C7          F           C
Some through great sorrow, but God gives a song,
Em            Am        Dm       G7  C
In the night season and all the day long.

Sometimes on the mount where the sun shines so bright,
God leads His dear children along;
Sometimes in the valley, in darkest of night,
God leads His dear children along.

Though sorrows befall us and evils oppose,
God leads His dear children along;
Through grace we can conquer, defeat all our foes,
God leads His dear children along.

Away from the mire, and away from the clay,
God leads His dear children along;
Away up in glory, eternity’s day,
God leads His dear children along.
